Seven questions on reading pictograms and bar charts across four pages of Year 3 maths. Pupils read a favourite fruit pictogram, work out how many more children chose banana than grape, then read a bar chart of books read each week and find differences between weeks. Detailed answers for all seven questions are included. Covers both England National Curriculum Year 3 statistics objectives.

“Solve one-step and two-step questions [for example, 'How many more?' and 'How many fewer?'] using information presented in scaled bar charts and pictograms and tables.”
How many more and how many fewer questions appear in both sections.
Read a favourite fruit pictogram and answer questions like how many more chose banana than grape.
